haha oh yeah.. yunwen look what i found. leon devouring his viking ribs. that was like two whole years ago la. so fast!

been busy with a mix of friends, school stuff, slacking and working. looks like that's how my days are gonna be like the next 3-4 months. must. finish. 80hrs. comms. service. fuck.

voting day is round the corner. my area is under east coast GRC which is apparently being contested. however as of the 28th all i've see are PAP boards and posters and i'm like, who the hell is the opposition?? east coast GRC stretches over quite a large area of the east and of course mine is like the most ulu area la. and it was only when i traveled to more civilised areas like tanah merah that i began to see some opposition activity. like umm, if you can't even bother to cover the whole GRC during your campaigning then it doesn't really say much about you.

i'm not conservative when it comes to politics. but to be honest, i think singapore is not yet matured enough to have too liberal a political scene. and i will leave it as that and keep the rest of my views to myself.

i'll be away in KL from 1st to the 5th with the ahlians so seeya when i'm back. time for some majorrr shopping. i've got my shopping list alr, way before even listing out what i have to pack haha.

exams are over and summer break is here :) and till i actually do something with it, i don't really have anything to say. so cheerio cheerio.

oh by the way, someone actually reminded me today that my bday is in about 2 and a half weeks. that's damn fast cos i still remember the last one so vividly. anyway i'm not one to post a long wishlist saying i want this, this, that and this. i don't think simply surviving another 365 days entitles you to insist that people satisfy your stupid material wants. like what's the rationale behind that?

the best gift = quiet dinners with loved ones. it would be an understatement to say that these are precious times.

one paper down, and the mugging continues. this time for psych, 716 pages of font size 8 to digest in 3 days harharhahar. and it's not like i have a lot to look forward to right after the exams either. like i have to attend some lame teambuilding day camp the next day after my paper, how loser is that. honestly i don't know what possessed me to sign up to be a facilitator. i think it was a real Joan Of Arcadia moment man, where God came in the form of Outlook Express.

i've been thinking, and there are two things i really wish to pick up because i know i can excel at them. the first would be photography. i am amazed that my amateur photography skills displayed in my Creative Thinking proj last term has elicited such praise from the dept, and that it even got Margaret Chan talking about it. i can't even recall when someone last singled out my work and praised it like my prof did. and if it did, i'm quite sure it wasn't in the form of an essay. because it's been quite established by Harris in vj, that i can't produce a proper piece of writing. (i.e "what is this!?!?", his scrawly handwriting in dark green ink. i'm sure every vj arts fac student remembers that.)

secondly, it'd be oil paintings. i'm just very drawn to the ability of oil paints to create such texture and vibrancy as opposed to other types of paint. and it's just very exciting how your canvas can transform into almost anything, the possibilities are infinite. as with everything, i can't really do something that has been set out for me black and white. i need the space and personal autonomy to explore my own possibilities and to do it in my preferred way.

and therefore, i am so gonna suffer in the world out there. 'world out there' being rigid 9 to 5, sorry 830 to 6 life in the office. i need to figure it out soon, or else i'm just gonna be doing my post-grad right after uni. and who would have thought that chloe fair would choose to study more than she actually has to.

looking forward to a good result slip this term.
this is scary. what has uni done to me?

i can't really concentrate on my studying because this weather just makes me wanna crawl underneath my quilt and just sleeeeeeeeep. see? even the word itself has such a hypnotizing effect. and it doesn't help either that i'm currently mugging for my research methods paper because it's just so goddamn boring. it also really doesn't help that i'm gobbling down this 10,000 calorie slice of cheesecake right now. does life get any grimmer than this?

unfortunately, yes.

on an unrelated note.. it's always been a small world. but life in uni makes it seem even smaller. which as a result makes me want to not have anything to do with it because well, you'll never know when any one of these people will turn out to be some two-faced bastard or some fucking retard who always just tries too hard. and like once you know them it's too late because you can't like, un-know people right. if i had the ability to un-know certain people.. i'd have a neat, pretty list with their names typed out in block letters, arranged in order by "oh god i wish i really really never knew you" to "well yeah, i could do without you in my life". i can like easily think of the top5 people alr. sadly though, this can only remain a little fantasy of mine.

not all fantasies need to be erotic right. perv.

meerkat enters SCDF today. i'm quite sure you'll look quite sexayyy in the bright orange fireman helmet. my first fireman friend :) come to think of it, the only 'fire' i've been involved in so far was upper sec physics lab. my friends managed to connect this circuit the wrong way and the voltmeter started melting haha. yes we suck at science so bad.

never is a promise, and you can't afford to lie.

these two lines are for leonard since apparently that's all he can see haha. nb: site can't be viewed properly on firefox. sorry but i still prefer my good old IE. updated versions of course.

so it's that time of the year again (or semester to be more accurate because one Final a year is a thing of the past). i have to say that this is going by pretty fast, and i'm a soon-to-not-be freshie (god i hate that term) anymore. which is good, fast fast fast. that's the way i like it. especially when it comes to school related stuff.

ice age 2 is freaking funny. ignore those stupid reviews. sometimes i think they get 90 year old women (disclaimer: i do love old people) with no sense of humor to come up with those reviews on ST. just like how they get lameass cheena piangs to review CDs on 8 days. yeah so anyway, please watch :) and Scrat is NOT my alter-ego! haha maybe sometimes but please, spare me some dignity.

things i'm looking forward to after the exams:
-working on a new layout for this place
-starting on my CD site
-going back to work (with a new fucked up manager though. ok i hope she's not into googling names or else she'll see this. if you do, umm... you freaking voyeur! *points finger*)
-faci stuff
-bali trip yesyesyes, plsplspls
-and anything that falls into the category "nonsensical"

so dear me, please study hard.

lazy saturday (not so) morning (anymore)

:)

and so it goes.

people.

hello lenny :)
